Same Day Removals in Exeter: What to Expect
Same day removals exeter differ from a standard planned move in one important way: speed is the priority without any cut to quality. Giant Van operates a dedicated same day fleet across Exeter, meaning a vehicle is rarely more than 30 to 40 minutes from your postcode when you call.
Same-Day Available
The process is straightforward. You phone or book online, tell us what needs moving, and we confirm a time slot. Our driver arrives with the right size van, protective blankets, strapping, and a trolley. We load carefully, drive directly to your new address, and unload in the right rooms.
Same day jobs in Exeter typically fall into three categories. The first is the emergency move, where a tenant needs to clear a property fast due to an unexpected end of tenancy. The second is the impulse purchase, where someone has bought a large sofa on Facebook Marketplace in Heavitree and needs it home the same afternoon. The third is the planned last-minute job, where a removal company cancelled and you need a reliable replacement by end of day.
All three are common requests we handle daily across the EX1, EX2, EX3, and EX4 postcode districts. Our pricing is transparent and agreed before we start. There are no hidden surcharges for same day availability. A man and van costs between £45 and £300 depending on load size and journey length. A full house move starts at £250 and rises to £850 for larger properties with multiple trips.
Getting Around Exeter: Roads, Parking, and Access Points
Exeter has some genuinely awkward access spots, and knowing them in advance saves time on the day.
Our drivers work these streets regularly, so you are not paying for someone to learn the area at your expense.
The city centre around High Street and Fore Street is pedestrianised for most of the day.
Loading is typically allowed before 10:00 and after 17:00. If you are moving from a flat above a shop on Sidwell Street or near the Guildhall, we plan our arrival time around those windows. Parking suspension permits can be arranged for the kerbside if you give us 48 hours' notice, though on same day jobs we work with what is available and use discretion.
The Topsham Road corridor in EX2 is often slow during school drop-off and pick-up hours.
We route via Countess Wear if needed to avoid the bottleneck near Exeter Road Bridge. Properties on the steep terraced streets off Heavitree Road, such as Monk Road and Ladysmith Road, sometimes require a smaller vehicle due to road width. We carry both Luton vans and smaller transit-sized vehicles, so this is never a problem.
Newtown, just east of the city centre near Burnthouse Lane, has tight residential streets where larger lorries cannot pass.
Our medium-wheelbase vans fit cleanly. Pinhoe Road in EX4 and the newer builds on the Newcourt development near Clyst Road are straightforward, with good road widths and designated parking bays. St Leonards, one of Exeter's most popular residential areas, usually has ample on-street parking near Victoria Park Road but can fill by mid-morning.

6 Tips
Here are the practical steps that make the biggest difference.
Loose items slow the load considerably. If you have not had time to source boxes, hardware shops on Fore Street and Argos near Princesshay both stock small quantities. In a real emergency, supermarkets on Pinhoe Road and at Sowton Retail Park often leave banana boxes outside before midday.
When our team carries 40 boxes in 30 minutes, room labels mean nothing gets put in the wrong place at the new address.
A standard king-size divan base from a terraced house on Magdalen Road or a double wardrobe from a flat in Pennsylvania will take five to ten minutes to break down. If you cannot do this yourself, let us know when you book and we add a small disassembly charge.
This means moving children, pets, and any loose rugs or cables away from the route between furniture and the front door. Trips and obstructions are the most common cause of delay and minor damage.
Some buildings restrict lifts to outside business hours.

Areas We Cover for Same Day Removals Across Exeter
Giant Van covers every district within Exeter's boundary and several surrounding areas that residents regularly move to and from.
Within EX1 we cover the city centre, St James, Newtown, Whipton, and Pinhoe.
These are some of our busiest areas for same day student and professional moves. EX2 covers the areas south of the river Exe, including Alphington, Marsh Barton, Countess Wear, Topsham, and Exminster. EX3 takes in Topsham village and Woodbury.

Why Exeter Residents Choose Giant Van
Exeter has no shortage of removal firms, from sole traders advertising on local Facebook groups to regional operators with large fleets. Giant Van sits between the two. We have the scale to guarantee same day availability across the city every day of the week, and the owner-operated culture that means the person on the phone actually cares if your move goes well.
Our drivers know Exeter. They know that the road outside the cathedral on The Close is restricted at peak times. They know that the lane running behind Exe Street floods after heavy rain in winter. They know that parking on certain streets in St Leonard's requires a resident's bay permit before 10:00. This local knowledge cuts delays that cost you time and money.
Our pricing is honest. When we quote £150 for a two-bedroom move from Polsloe Road to Pinhoe Road, that is the number you pay. We do not add staircase fees mid-job or discover that your sofa counts as an oversized item once it is in the van.
We are available when other firms are not. Same day bookings on Sundays, bank holidays, and Christmas week are all handled at standard rates. If you are moving out of student accommodation near Streatham Campus on the last day of your tenancy in September and every other company is booked, we will be available.
Our crew treat your belongings with care. Furniture blankets go on every upholstered piece. Boxes are stacked and strapped. Fragile items are loaded last and secured separately. A careful team is a faster team, because damage slows everything down.

Best Times to Book Same Day Removals in Exeter
5 Tips
While Giant Van operates across all hours from 07:00 to 21:00, some slots are consistently easier to fill than others.
The school run is over, parking restrictions have lifted on most streets, and the day is long enough to complete a two-bedroom move with time to unpack. This window is also the easiest for moving to locations outside Exeter, as the A30 and M5 junction at Exeter Services are clear of commuter traffic.
If you are moving from Beacon Heath or Whipton, a 13:00 start gives our crew time to complete and return before the evening rush.
If you know your move date will fall on a Friday in these months, call as early in the day as possible. We keep two to three vehicles back for late-notice bookings but Friday afternoon slots after 14:00 fill fastest.
If you are flexible on day and need the most competitive rate within our man and van pricing range, a Sunday morning job on a short route such as Heavitree to Topsham is where you will find the best value.
Same Day vs Planned Removals in Exeter: Which Is Right for You?
4 Tips
If your move date is fixed and more than five days away, booking in advance saves money and gives you access to our widest choice of start times.
Our planning team can also survey the property in advance for anything oversized or requiring specialist equipment, such as a upright piano on Barton Road or a large safe in a Topsham office.
The only difference is the lead time and, in most cases, the price per hour for the crew's time. Call 020 3129 6180 and we will tell you honestly whether a same day or planned booking is the better fit for your situation.
Giant Van has completed thousands of same day removals across Exeter and the wider EX postcode area.
Same-Day Available
Our team understands the difference between a job quoted online and one actually executed on a narrow terrace in St Thomas with a staircase and a parking warden two streets away.
That gap between theory and practice is where experience counts.
For any enquiry, call 020 3129 6180.
Our booking team is available from 07:00 to 21:00 every day of the year.
We confirm all same day bookings within the hour and aim to have a vehicle with you within two hours of confirmation for most Exeter postcodes.
Every same day removal job we complete in Exeter is followed by a debrief with our crew.
If something could have gone faster or smoother, we capture it.
That feedback loop is why our local knowledge of Exeter's streets, parking restrictions, and access points improves with every job we do.
When you call 020 3129 6180, you are booking a team that has already learned the lessons so you do not have to experience them.

Fast, Reliable Help When You Need It Most — FAQs
How quickly can Giant Van respond to a same day removal request in Exeter?
For most Exeter postcodes, we can confirm a same day booking within the hour and have a vehicle at your property within two hours of confirmation. Response times vary depending on the time of day and how many jobs are already running. Calls before 11:00 typically receive the fastest turnaround. Phone for an immediate availability check.
What areas of Exeter do you cover for same day removals?
We cover all Exeter postcode districts including EX1, EX2, EX3, and EX4. This includes the city centre, St Leonards, Heavitree, Topsham, Pinhoe, Pennsylvania, Beacon Heath, Alphington, and Countess Wear. We also handle same day collections and deliveries to nearby towns including Exmouth, Crediton, Dawlish, and Tiverton within the same booking.
Do you charge extra for same day availability in Exeter?
We do not apply a same day surcharge on standard residential and office jobs. The price you receive when you call is the all-in price including fuel, crew, and equipment. The only jobs where availability timing affects cost are very large house moves requiring specialist equipment, where we may ask for a short-notice planning fee. This is confirmed before you commit.
Can you handle parking restrictions in Exeter city centre for same day moves?
Yes. Our drivers know the loading windows on pedestrianised streets like Fore Street and Sidwell Street. For planned same day jobs with a few hours' notice, we can arrange a parking suspension permit for most residential streets in central Exeter. For true emergency bookings with under two hours' notice, our crew manages access using existing legal loading zones close to your property.
What is included in a Giant Van man and van service in Exeter?
The man and van service includes one driver and one loader, furniture blankets and strapping, basic flat-pack disassembly and reassembly, a van matched to your load size, and a direct journey to your destination. Packing materials such as boxes and bubble wrap are not included by default but can be pre-ordered when you book. Pricing runs from £45 to £300 depending on load and distance.
Do you move students in Exeter during term start and end?
We handle student moves throughout the year across Exeter, including during the busy September intake and June departure periods near the University of Exeter and Streatham Campus. Same day availability during these periods is possible but fills quickly on Fridays. We recommend calling before 09:00 on busy student move days. We cover halls, private houses, and flat shares across EX4 and surrounding streets.
How do I pay for a same day removal in Exeter?
Payment is collected on completion of the job. We accept cash and all major debit and credit cards. No deposit is required for most same day moves under £200. For larger jobs or long-distance moves outside Exeter, we may ask for a 20 per cent deposit to confirm the booking. This is confirmed clearly when you call and is always refundable if we cannot fulfil the booking as agreed.
Can you move office equipment on the same day in Exeter?
Yes. Our office removal service handles computers, monitors, filing cabinets, desks, and office chairs on a same day basis. We have completed same day office relocations at Marsh Barton Trading Estate and Southernhay East. Pricing runs from £300 to £600 depending on the volume of equipment and whether the move takes place during or outside business hours. Call to confirm crew and vehicle availability today.
